"Three James Bond novellas come alive in [Simon Vance's] expert hands. [Vance] gives Bond a smooth, urbane voice, managing not to reflect any of the actors who've played the British spy on screen. He also nimbly handles the major's inner dialogue in Octopussy."AudioFile

Published posthumously, Octopussy is an anthology of three novellas:

In Octopussy, the legendary 007 is sent to Jamaica to deal with a rich, deranged major with a fondness for eight-legged creatures.

In The Living Daylights, Bond's mission is to kill the KGB sniper, code named Trigger, who will try to prevent an important Russian official from defecting.

The Property of a Lady finds Bond at an auction tracking down an exotic object d'art and a deceptive woman.
